During the evacuation of Arcas, she was kept with her mother until they landed in Providence. However, Edith ran away several times for a year or so period returning to her parents permanently when she was 16 to join the ISA as her Father did. In 1803 she became engaged to Silvius Hope, marrying him a month or so later privately. They currently have two children named Rosaleen, and Finn Hope II. In 1806 her husband left her and began dating Jakob Castington in 1811 she was granted dissolution from Silvius Hope and in 1814 she married once again. They have one adopted child together which is Seraphina Hope as well as the two children Edith brought from her previous marriage.

Political Career

Edith Hope ran in 1804 for the Providence City Assembly at age 20 the youngest of any candidate in Providence history winning her seat after hosting several prominent events with the National Party leadership in the Wicked Spider Tavern. In 1805 she has filed to run in the Mayoral Election to succeed Ciprian de la Baltas as Lord Mayor. A year later when the votes were announced, Edith lost to Alphonse Sylvester Halcourt by only a few hundred votes. In 1808 she ran once again for the City Assembly winning her seat handily. She has been advocating for lower taxes, free markets, and housing for veterans. Her current acts that have passed include the Orphanage Act of 1806, and other bills. In 1813 she ran for re-election however, through miscommunication with the city's magistrate, she had lost after not being made aware of when the voting period was to take place.
